Yippee! I have only just had my fourth. All the best
I have just had my 4th jab last week, is there more priority for people on treatment than those on W & W.
No don't think do. Just three months, I could have gone on 20th April but we were travelling on the 21st so didn't want to risk side effects. Think another in the Autumn. We have taken a chance and renewed our passports so hoping we can get away in the winter. Had bloods done yesterday and a consultation on the phone on Monday with Dr Munro. Fingers crossed 🤞
Are you keeping well? I was thinking that as the weather hopefully warms up, we might chance a meeting, what do you think, I have still the contacts for the people who were interested.
Stay safe Alice x
Great. Good to get it done.Peggy
Glad I have had it, my friend joked that I am getting very fond of needles (she is a retired CNS and has a needle phobia). That said she has really looked after me, even to point of semi shielding so that we could be in a bubble. She did all our shopping to keep us safe. I so value her friendship. Are you keeping well Peggy

My husband and I both had our 5th jab and our local health department gave us each a twenty dollar gift card. Plus a thermometer, an Oximeter, test kits, & masks!
Hahaha I take it you are referring to vaccines, and not being a guinea pig incubator for Covid! Lololol
Did you get an invite to have a 5th jab or did you initiate it? In the past I always got a letter but nothing this time.
My husband (6yrs w and w) had his 5th jab on Wednesday and for the first time he has had side effects (whereas I had side effects on two out of three jabs). Nausea, shivers, achey legs. It seems to have almost subsided now. We’re hoping it’s an indication that he’s producing antibodies. One can only hope 😉
Here in the States my Specialist said I was due for my 5th jab and she wanted me to switch to a full dose Moderna. So I went to a Walgreens pharmacy and the pharmacist kindly told me that the 5th jab is not authorized despite anything the CDC recommends. I went through this to get my forth and it took over a month for the US government to get everyone on board.
